Bethany
Midlife crisis - September 5th, 2003 at 08:12 PM

This is Bethany's first time with her tyres on an actual road. She is not registered yet but when the photo was taken she was on her way to a neighbour to have her rust and bare paint spots fixed and undercoated. She is back now, but looks like she has the pox.

Suppose you can't have everything at once.

Nice one midlife, what colour is she going to be?

Dasdubber - September 15th, 2003 at 09:53 PM

Slowly but surely midlife!! You'll get there eventually and it will be worthwhile :)

Is it just my eyes or does your fastback have "TYPE3" badges on the front guards. I'd love some but my square is heaps earlier. :thumb

Hi Guys

Bethany is going to be our driving car, if it ever gets registered, and we will be doing things to it as we go.
Tried for rego today, but they failed the car on - not having a drivers side interior trim, engine leak ( really not engine leak, looks like where the oil filler pipe goes in isn't on properly), too much steering play and a few other really minor things. Would you believe that a bulb blew between the Auto Electrician next door and the mechanics!

So back it has to come so we can sort out those problems and try to get them to check it again next week. (At least we don't have to pay again)

:cry :cry :cry

Oh and YES we do have Type 3 badges on it, but I think they will have to be supaglued on to keep them!!!!!!!!!

bumer sorry to here that after all your hard work:(

Yep she is back on the road. The pooooor mechanic had heart failure when he heard the noise, but replaced the torque converter and the drive plate as they were both damaged.

Can I also say a big thank you to Leons Motors as he fixed the problem at a reasonable price.
